Ray Wilkins says that the likes of former West Midlands bosses Tim Sherwood and Alex McLeish should be considered for a whole host of jobs that have recently become available.

At this moment in time, there are vacancies at Sunderland, Leeds, Hull, Middlesbrough and Crystal Palace, and Wilkins, who worked with Sherwood at Villa, says British managers out of work aren’t being given a fair crack of the whip.

Daniel Farke, formerly of Borussia Dortmund II, has just been handed the job at Norwich, despite having no previous experience of English football - something Wilkins “finds a little bit strange”.

“We’re not getting a lot of respect from the clubs to be perfectly honest,” he told talkSPORT.
